The Dallas Mavericks (21-43) stay on the road on Tuesday night, this time facing off against the Atlanta Hawks. Dallas has the league’s longest losing streak, currently sitting at seven games. Their opponent, meanwhile, is red-hot, winning six straight. This is an important game for both teams and will be worth tuning in for even if you’re highly invested in the tank
Here are the main things you need to know:
- WHO: Dallas Mavericks vs Atlanta Hawks
- WHAT: Becoming one with road games.
- WHERE: State Farm Arena, Atlanta, Georgia
- WHEN: 6:30 pm CST
- HOW: KFAA Channel 29, MavsTV streaming, NBA League Pass
The injury report for the Dallas Mavericks tonight is easily the best it’s been in months.
The two-way players are all doubtful, so Moussa Cisse won’t play. And of course Dereck Lively and Kyrie Irving are out. Everyone else is not on the report at all.

The Atlanta Hawks will be without Jonathan Kuminga, who is missing the game due to a knee bruise.
This game should be a test for the Dallas tank. The Hawks are playing their best basketball of the season and Dallas has looked really out of sorts the last few losses. To the point that watching them feels fruitless. They need just one thing to go their way to get a win, but I have real concerns about their ability to stop Jalen Johnson, who poured in 35 points in his last game on Saturday. The Hawks will have had two days off, a rarity in the NBA comparatively, so they should come out looking spry.

Consider joining Josh and me on Pod Maverick live after the game on YouTube, we should start LATE. Thanks so much for spending time with us here at Mavs Moneyball. Let’s go Mavs!
